Find a Therapist in United States

I’ve spent a lot of time developing expertise in the issues I work with; however, I rely equally on my heart and gut sense in working with each client uniquely. I have a straightforward, common-sense style and know the value of elbow grease in making life changes. Trauma in all its forms is the thread that connects the different life problems I specialize in working with. I don’t believe in having only one tool in my toolbox, any more than I believe in having only one trauma treatment available to help you. Let’s figure out what tools work best for you, whether that be EMDR, Accelerated Resolution Therapy, Somatic Experiencing, Brain Spotting, Deep Brain Reorienting, or the Safe and Sound Protocol. We currently have openings for intensives, men's and women's groups, and online workshops.  

My role is as collaborator, guide, coach and empathetic listener. Together we will work to explore your goals and how I can best support your journey there. I believe clients can become the heroes of their lives and help them tap into their own wisdom and healing capacity.  

I believe that therapy is a gift to ourselves. Taking time to explore our inner struggles and how they are affecting our daily lives can be empowering and eventually freeing. It is a journey of courage and strength, and I am honored to be able to walk beside others as they travel it.  

Our practice is grounded in a deep appreciation for the diverse experiences that shape each person’s life. Our founder grew up in Jamaica, Queens, surrounded and supported by three generations of remarkable women—an experience that continues to inform the values of care, resilience, and community that guide our work today. Across our practice, we have the privilege of supporting individuals from a wide range of cultural backgrounds, gender identities, and socioeconomic experiences, each bringing their own unique perspectives and concerns. As a practice founded by a Black, queer, first-generation college graduate, we hold a strong awareness of how power, privilege, and systemic forces shape daily life and mental health. We also recognize the vulnerability it takes to seek therapy. Our work is informed not only by clinical expertise, but by a deep respect for the courage and commitment involved in pursuing healing and meaningful change. This perspective shapes our intention to create a space that is thoughtful, affirming, and responsive to the full complexity of our clients’ lived experiences.  

If you feel emotionally alone in your marriage — I see you. Maybe your spouse won’t talk. Maybe you feel like you’re the only one trying, while carrying the weight of the relationship on your own. I help women and couples navigate this painful space with compassion, faith, and practical steps that lead to healing, clarity, and connection — even if your partner isn’t ready (yet). You don’t have to keep repeating the same arguments or feeling invisible. With God, all things are possible — and healing can begin with just one willing heart.  

I offer a space for students and professionals to understand and relate to their stresses in new ways. My approach to therapy is contemplative, where our relationship and your experience in the here and now is emphasized. We work together to compassionately uncover insight.  

Ever feel stuck? Maybe you are bogged down with thoughts, memories, or uncomfortable feelings. Or maybe you are just itching for a change in your life. I am a licensed psychotherapist with an additional doctorate degree. I help individuals, couples, and families throughout Orange County & LA County. My approach is one where I aim for you to feel comfortable from the very beginning. No cookie cutter model here...I will find a way to meet you where you are at and work toward your therapy goals. I'm an accomplice toward helping you feel heard and validated in your journey...because life, after all, through the good and the bad, is a journey, isn't it? We will work together through the highs and lows, the conflicts internally and externally, re-group when thought processes get us in a rut, and focus on full mind-body health. I walk the walk in wellness in that it is my life mission to help better the lives of others. I am a semi-professional marathon runner and creator of the mind-body wellness brand, TIER Wellness, that encourages others to reach the next TIER in their lives.

I specialize in the treatment of trauma, anxiety and depression. My personal philosophy is that we are all already whole. Each of us already possesses the tools we need within to realize our full potential-- what we need to do is look inward. I am passionate about working with motivated clients of all ages, races, genders sexual orientations and religious/spiritual perspectives towards healing from trauma, releasing themselves from the grips of anxiety, depression and chronic stress, and finding joy, direction and purpose in their lives. I use a person-centered and humanistic approach, valuing my relationship with my clients as the most important tool in my practice. My goal is to help my clients attain wellness and balance of the mind, body and spirit in order to live their lives to the fullest.  

I provide a compassionate, faith-informed space where individuals can process trauma, anxiety, depression, burnout, and life transitions with honesty and hope. I believe healing happens when clients feel safe, understood, and supported—emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. My approach is collaborative and trauma-informed, helping clients explore patterns that contribute to stress and feelings of emotional depletion while building practical tools for lasting change. I integrate evidence-based therapy with clients’ faith when desired, honoring personal values and beliefs throughout the therapeutic process. Many of the clients I work with feel exhausted from carrying too much for too long. Together, we work toward greater clarity, resilience, and a renewed sense of purpose. I aim to make therapy a supportive and empowering experience as you move toward healing and wholeness.  

I'm a neurodivergent trauma specialist who tailors therapy to your unique needs and challenges. I can help you gain insight into your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, and provide practical tools for managing daily life. My approach includes validation, self-compassion, and acceptance, and I aim to create a safe space where you can be yourself.  

I offer a safe environment where you can begin the healing process. I bring both personal and professional experience to the therapeutic process. I know what it is like to struggle with life stressors. You are not alone! Many of my clients begin to see progress in just a few sessions. Keep in mind everyone's journey is unique.  

Raising kids today is challenging. Every family has struggles and more parents than ever find they need help to meet these challenges and keep their families on track and their kids thriving. I provide a safe environment for you and your family to explore your struggles and find hope and healing.  

Life is full of messy tensions. People who are supposed to be the safest let us down. The things we know are good for us can be the most difficult to follow through. At one moment, we feel paralyzed by inaction, and in the next, we can be flooded by thoughts. Sorting through these tensions alone can be scary, frustrating, and exhausting. My goal to provide a non-judgmental and supportive environment to disentangle the complex narrative of your life and find your unique way of thriving. I provide exclusively online therapy in the state of California.  

Working collaboratively we will fix the problems that take away from your ability to enjoy family, friends, hobbies and work.  

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been drawn to what lives beneath the surface — the unspoken tension in a room, the quiet ache behind someone’s words, the patterns that repeat in our lives no matter how hard we try to outgrow them. Counseling, for me, was never just a profession; it was I felt passionate about. Training refined it. Time and practice deepened it. I’ve spent over 14 years walking alongside people in the most vulnerable, honest, and transformative moments of their lives. I’ve worked in residential settings, universities, private practice — and now run therapy group built around one core belief: meaningful change is possible when people feel seen, not managed.  

My therapy practice is based on a person-centered and solution-focused treatment approach utilizing techniques learned and practiced from ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), and MBCT (Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy), as well as other treatment modalities requiring specifically focused therapy such as Christian Counseling.  

Your progress to achieve what you want from our time is my goal. I am attentive and straightforward, as well as caring. In twenty years of practice, I am grateful that many clients have told me that our work together was really helpful. Some return when needed and I receive referrals from prior clients as well. When we meet, you will tell me a bit about your life, what is causing you upset in this moment, and how you want life to be. We will brainstorm together about how you can begin working toward that end goal. This means regardless of which treatment modality (therapy style) is used, I am paying attention to your vocalized goals, your patterns of behavior, your feelings in relationships - including the one with yourself - and much more. It is true that we are affected by our experiences and upbringing and that may or may not be affecting you in the present. Your self-discipline, how observant you are in yourself, your confidence, how you think to yourself, how you talk with others, how you choose to spend your time, money situation, and choices in general make up the bulk of your life satisfaction. Please reach out to me if you would like to spend a few minutes on the phone before making a decision.  

I offer cognitive-behavioral therapy to help you make your own positive life decisions. Through sharing ideas in a caring, respectful relationship, you are actively involved in decision-making throughout the therapy process. My role is to provide a supportive and trusting environment.
